O pastor Martin Luther King fez o último sermão há 56 anos...

    

"I've Been to the Mountaintop" (em tradução livre: Eu estive no topo da Montanha) é o último discurso do ativista norte-americano, Martin Luther King Jr. O discurso foi proferido na noite de 3 de abril de 1968, na sede mundial da Igreja de Deus em Cristo, o Mason Temple, em Memphis, e nele King faz um apelo à união entre os ativistas negros e aos protestos não-violentos.

     

And then I got to Memphis. And some began to say the threats, or talk about the threats that were out. What would happen to me from some of our sick white brothers? ... Well, I don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead. But it doesn't really matter with me now. Because I've been to the mountaintop. I don't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live - a long life; longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over. And I've seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land. So I'm happy, tonight. I'm not worried about anything. I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.
